CRUSHIN’ FOR A CAUSE – softball benefit for India

“Vision Nationals began when Jesus Christ called a young man from a Hindu family to follow Him.”

For over ten years Mars Hill has participated in this calling. As a church we’ve seen multiple churches planted in India, we’ve sent teachers to train new pastors, and we have been blessed by the stories of lives being changed, with the God in Heaven being glorified throughout it all.

Over the years Vision Nationals has seen the scope of it’s ministry grow. Master’s Fellowship, the church planting aspect of the ministry, has started hundreds of churches throughout the region. By God’s Grace, the number of Christians grew (and grew and grew). The need for more well-trained pastors was evident which prompted the development of the Leadership Training Program. Master’s College of Theology was then created to prepare people for ministry in a full-time environment. Two other ministries sprung from a desire to assist the orphaned - Master’s Home for Children (a home for the homeless children) and Master’s Public School (education for the children in Master’s Home and the surrounding area). Ashraya was created to help support widows in rural areas where access to necessities is limited.

And now their latest endeavor (all praise be to God) and the reason for this post … Life Medical Clinics. As a means to provide care and medicine to those who cannot afford it, Life Medical Clinics is the natural extension of a ministry that serves God and neighbor.

CRUSHIN’ FOR A CAUSE

Jonah Episode 4: The Resentful Prophet

An amazing miracle has happened as an entire NATION of people drops to its knees in unified repentance to the one true God. It’s every pastor’s BEST dream, but the prophet Jonah… sits. And whines. Seems a bit anti-climactic for the end of the book, like a overly-hip indie film. What we see is that [...]

Our secondary emphasis [...]
